BDO president Nestor V. Tan said the bank’s optimism lies in the investments made the previous year both in capital, infrastructure and development, a primary reason its capital expenditure program has been trimmed down to a mere P350 million.

The healthier bottomline is attributable to a slight improvement in net interest income and a strong performance from fee-based activities, primarily trust, branch and treasury fixed-income dealership.
